Lectures on holographic methods for condensed matter physics
نویسنده
چکیده
These notes are loosely based on lectures given and to be given at the CERN Winter School on Supergravity, Strings and Gauge theories, February 2009 and at the IPM String School in Tehran, April 2009, respectively. I have focused on a few concrete topics and also on addressing questions that have arisen repeatedly. Background condensed matter physics material is included as motivation and easy reference for the high energy physics community. The discussion of holographic techniques progresses from equilibrium, to transport and to superconductivity. ar X iv :0 90 3. 32 46 v1 [ he pth ] 1 8 M ar 2 00 9

Holographic Duality with a View Toward Many-Body Physics
These are notes based on a series of lectures given at the KITP workshop Quantum Criticality and the AdS/CFT Correspondence in July, 2009. The goal of the lectures was to introduce condensed matter physicists to the AdS/CFT correspondence. Discussion of string theory and of supersymmetry is avoided to the extent possible.

In this series of lectures directed towards a mainly mathematically oriented audience I try to motivate the use of operator algebra methods in quantum field theory. Therefore a title as “why mathematicians are/should be interested in algebraic quantum field theory” would be equally fitting. Besides a presentation of the framework and the main results of local quantum physics these notes may ser...

متن کاملQuantum Theory of Condensed Matter
I aim to discuss a reasonably wide range of quantum-mechanical phenomena from condensed matter physics, with an emphasis mainly on physical ideas rather than mathematical formalism. The most important prerequisite is some understanding of second quantisation for fermions and bosons. There will be two problems classes in addition to the lectures.
